Syria threatens retaliatory strike on Tel Aviv Airport
[ALMASDARNEWS] The Permanent Representative of the Syrian Arab Republic to the United Nations
...an organization conceived in the belief that we're just one big happy world, with the sort of results you'd expect from such nonsense...
Bashar al-Ja’afari said in a statement on Tuesday that it was time that the United Nations Security Council "took action to stop constant Israeli attacks on Syrian territories."

According to al-Ja’afari, Israel had repeatedly violated international law without any consequences.

Al-Ja’afari said that Syria may exercise its right for self-defense and respond to the Israeli attack on Damascus Airport with "symmetric" strike on Tel-Aviv airport.

Damascus has rarely launched any missiles into israel in the past; however, with the war winding down inside Syria, the government may be emboldened to respond to any Israeli aggression.
